Method and system for comprehensively diagnosing faults in rotating machinery

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for diagnosing a defect in a rotating machine, and more particularly, to a method and system for diagnosing a defect in a rotating machine that connects various direct and indirect diagnosis techniques at the same time.

In general, a diagnostic system for diagnosing the state of a rotating machine can monitor the trend of equipment vibration and operating variables. In addition, the diagnosis system can change the monitoring period according to the presence or absence of abnormalities in the rotating machine, and can predict the equipment state by analyzing such a change trend.

Various direct diagnostic techniques and indirect diagnostic techniques may be used to diagnose the state of the rotating machine. For example, the diagnostic system may monitor the equipment by subdividing the fault frequency band. Alternatively, for example, the diagnostic system may automatically diagnose the equipment based on the defect characteristics and/or equipment information through the verified diagnostic rules. Alternatively, for example, the diagnosis system may diagnose equipment by extracting features based on a plurality of data and utilizing machine learning that implements a classification model through learning. Alternatively, for example, the diagnostic system may compare and diagnose mutual facilities by grouping similar facilities. Alternatively, for example, the diagnosis system may diagnose using driving information.

At this time, each of the diagnostic techniques independently outputs the result of the state of the rotating machine, and the result may also be a qualitative evaluation.

It is an object of the present disclosure to provide a method and system for diagnosing a defect in a rotating machine that automatically quantifies the state of a facility by simultaneously performing various diagnostic techniques in connection with information obtained from a rotating machine.

The defect diagnosis method of a rotating machine according to the present disclosure determines a defect level based on data diagnosing the state of the rotating machine, wherein the data for diagnosing the state of the rotating machine includes a feature vector related to a vibration signal of the rotating machine, including at least one of a frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine or a total vibration value of the rotating machine, and whether information related to a defect on the state history data of the rotating machine or an alarm related to operation information of the rotating machine is generated applying a weight to the defect level based on at least one of: and determining a defect severity of the rotating machine based on the weighted defect level.

For example, the state history data of the rotating machine may include a maintenance history of the rotating machine and information related to the same type of equipment, and the defect on the state history data of the rotating machine may be a defect with the highest frequency in the same type of equipment. .

For example, an alarm may be generated based on a monitoring item related to the operation information of the rotating machine exceeding a preset reference value.

For example, the operation information of the rotary machine may include at least one of a flow rate of a pump related to the rotary machine, front and rear pressures related to the rotary machine, and a fluid temperature related to the rotary machine.

For example, a weight may be added to the defect level based on the coincidence of a defect with the highest frequency in the same type of equipment related to the rotating machine and a defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level.

For example, a weight may be added to the defect level based on the occurrence of an alarm related to operation information of the rotating machine.

For example, based on the discrepancy between the most frequent defect in the same equipment related to the rotating machine and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level, it is determined whether an alarm related to the operation information of the rotating machine is generated. can

For example, the first defect value of the rotating machine may be diagnosed through machine learning based on a feature vector related to the vibration signal of the rotating machine. It is possible to determine whether the rotating machine is defective through the machine learning. The machine learning may be performed based on feature vectors related to the vibration signal of the rotating machine.

For example, the second defect value may be diagnosed based on a frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine and the first defect value.

For example, the third defect value may be diagnosed based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine and the second defect value.

For example, the defect level of the rotating machine may be determined based on at least one of the first defect value, the second defect value, or the third defect value.

For example, based on the absence of a defect in the rotating machine, the first defect value may be determined to be zero, and the defect severity may be determined to be zero.

For example, based on the presence of a defect in the rotating machine, the first defect value may be determined based on an entire sample associated with the rotating machine and a sample of defects associated with the rotating machine.

For example, based on the frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine being within a preset range, the second defect value may be determined as the preset first value.

For example, the second defect value may be determined as the first defect value, and the defect level may be determined as the first defect value, based on a frequency associated with a defect of the rotating machine being outside a preset range. .

For example, based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine being less than a first threshold value, the third defect value may be determined as the second defect value, and the defect level may be determined as the second defect value. .

For example, based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine being greater than a first threshold value, the third defect value is determined as a preset second value, and the defect level is determined as the preset second value. have.

For example, based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine being greater than a second threshold value, the third defect value is determined as a preset third value, and the defect level is determined as the preset third value. have.

On the other hand, the defect diagnosis system of the rotating machine according to the present disclosure determines the defect level based on the data diagnosing the state of the rotating machine, the data diagnosing the state of the rotating machine, It includes at least one of a vector, a frequency associated with a defect of the rotary machine, or a total vibration value of the rotary machine, and generates information related to a defect on the state history data of the rotary machine or an alarm related to operation information of the rotary machine based on at least one of whether or not, a weight may be applied to the defect level, and the defect severity of the rotating machine may be determined based on the weighted defect level.

On the other hand, the operation processor of the fault diagnosis system of the rotating machine according to the present disclosure determines the defect level based on the data diagnosing the state of the rotating machine, and the data diagnosing the state of the rotating machine is the vibration signal of the rotating machine. It includes at least one of a feature vector related to a defect of the rotating machine, a frequency associated with a defect of the rotating machine, or a total vibration value of the rotating machine, and information related to a defect on the state history data of the rotating machine or information related to operation information of the rotating machine Based on at least one of whether an alarm is generated, a weight may be applied to the defect level, and the defect severity of the rotating machine may be determined based on the weighted defect level.

The shapes of elements in the drawings may be exaggerated for more clear explanation, and elements indicated by the same reference numerals in the drawings mean the same elements.

1 is a block diagram illustrating a system for diagnosing a defect in a rotating machine according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. 2 is a block diagram illustrating an operation processor of a defect diagnosis system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Here, the rotary machine 10 may be various rotary machines such as a pump, a compressor, and a fan. However, this is for explaining the present disclosure, and the type of the rotating machine 10 is not limited.

On the other hand, the defect diagnosis system 100 acquires data from the rotating machine 10 and builds the data, and when the defect diagnosis of the rotating machine 10 is required again, an automatic predictive diagnosis can be performed using the constructed data. . In addition, the defect diagnosis system 100 outputs the diagnosed defect value so that the inspector can intuitively determine whether there is an abnormality in the rotating machine 10 and determine the replacement and maintenance time.

First, the rotating machine 10 may be equipped with a sensor for acquiring various information including operation information of the rotating machine 10 . In addition, the sensor may be linked to the defect diagnosis system 100 to provide acquired data to the defect diagnosis system 100 . However, this is for the purpose of explaining the present disclosure, and it should be noted that the data on the rotating machine 10 may be directly acquired by an operator rather than acquired by a sensor and input to the predictive diagnosis system.

In addition, the defect diagnosis system 100 includes a storage unit 110 in which data provided from the rotating machine 10 is stored, an arithmetic processor 120 that performs predictive diagnosis based on data obtained from the rotating machine 10, and an output unit 130 for displaying defect information. Here, the computational processor 120 may include a computational device provided in the computer, software for computation, and a computer language for computation, and the computational processor 120 may perform the following processes. have.

Meanwhile, a method for diagnosing a defect in a rotating machine according to various embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below. However, detailed descriptions of the above-described components will be omitted and the same reference numerals will be assigned to them.

For example, the fault diagnosis system 100 may monitor a trend for equipment vibration and operation variables related to equipment. The defect diagnosis system 100 may change the monitoring period according to the presence or absence of abnormality in the equipment. The defect diagnosis system 100 may analyze the fluctuation trend, and the defect diagnosis system 100 may predict the state of the equipment through the analyzed fluctuation trend. The defect diagnosis system 100 may set a monitoring target and a monitoring period. The defect diagnosis system 100 may monitor the vibration trend for each facility point. The fault diagnosis system 100 may monitor operation variables of the same time period.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect based on narrowband diagnosis. That is, the defect diagnosis system 100 can monitor the equipment by dividing the defect frequency bands for each equipment in detail. The defect diagnosis system 100 may predict the type of defect as well as the presence or absence of a defect. The defect diagnosis system 100 may derive the band of the defect frequency of each facility. The defect diagnosis system 100 may set an allowable range for each band of the defect frequency. For example, the fault diagnosis system 100 may be set as an alert if it is within 2σ from the reference value, and may be set as a fault if it is within 3σ from the reference value. The defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect frequency for each cycle. Such a narrow-band diagnostic technique may be effective in detecting early defects.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect based on rule-based diagnosis. That is, the defect diagnosis system 100 may automatically diagnose the facility based on the defect characteristics and/or facility information. The defect diagnosis system 100 may implement the verified diagnosis rule as logic in the form of a decision tree. The defect diagnosis system 100 may automatically derive expert-level diagnosis results when data is input. In this rule-based diagnosis, the reliability of the diagnosis result can be increased by using the verified diagnosis rule, and the process and contents of the diagnosis result can be traced.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect through comparison between devices of the same type. That is, the defect diagnosis system 100 may group like equipment, and the defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect by comparing the same types of equipment with each other. The defect diagnosis system 100 may derive a defect with a high frequency of occurrence for each type of equipment. The fault diagnosis system 100 may group facilities of the same type that perform the same function into the same type of facilities. Since the defect diagnosis system 100 derives a defect with a high frequency of occurrence for each type of equipment, it is possible to secure weak parts in advance, and to prepare urgently for a sudden failure of the equipment. The fault diagnosis system 100 may optimize the maintenance cycle by reflecting the characteristics of the same type of equipment.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect through machine learning. That is, the defect diagnosis system 100 may diagnose a defect through artificial intelligence using a large amount of data. The defect diagnosis system 100 may extract features from various data, and the defect diagnosis system 100 may implement a classification model through learning. For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine a classification model based on normal, abnormal, and types of defects. A small number of diagnostic models based on such machine learning can be applied to various facilities.

Referring to FIG. 3 , in step S310 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine a defect level based on data diagnosing the state of the rotating machine. In step S330, the defect diagnosis system 100 may apply a weight to the defect level based on at least one of whether information related to a defect on the state history data of the rotating machine or an alarm related to operation information of the rotating machine is generated. . In step S350 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the defect severity of the rotating machine based on the weighted defect level.

For example, the state history data of the rotating machine may include a maintenance history of the rotating machine and information on the same type of equipment related to the rotating machine. The defect on the state history data of the rotating machine may be the most frequent defect in the same type of equipment.

For example, an alarm may be generated based on a monitoring item related to operation information of a rotating machine exceeding a preset reference value. The operation information of the rotating machine may include at least one of a flow rate of a pump related to the rotating machine, a front/rear pressure related to the rotating machine, or a fluid temperature related to the rotating machine.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may add a weight to the defect level based on the fact that the defect level and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level correspond to the most frequent defect in the same equipment related to the rotating machine. Alternatively, based on the occurrence of an alarm related to operation information of the rotating machine, the defect diagnosis system 100 may add a weight to the defect level. For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 determines whether an alarm related to operation information of the rotating machine is generated based on the discrepancy between the defect level and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level, the most frequent defect in the same equipment related to the rotating machine. can be judged

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may include at least one of a feature vector related to a vibration signal of a rotating machine, a frequency related to a defect in the rotating machine, or a total vibration value of the rotating machine, as the data for diagnosing the state of the rotating machine. may include Here, machine learning may be performed based on feature vectors related to the vibration signal of the rotating machine. For example, the fault diagnosis system 100 may determine that the first fault value is 0 based on the absence of a fault in the rotating machine. In this case, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the defect level to be 0 based on the first defect value being 0. Alternatively, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the first defect value based on the entire sample related to the rotating machine and the defective sample related to the rotating machine based on the presence of a defect in the rotating machine.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the second defect value as the preset first value based on that the frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine is within a preset range. Alternatively, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the second defect value as the first defect value based on that the frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine is out of a preset range. In this case, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the defect level as the first defect value.

For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the third defect value as the second defect value based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine being smaller than the first threshold value. In this case, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the defect level as the second defect value. Alternatively, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the third defect value as a preset second value based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine being greater than the first threshold value. In this case, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the defect level as a preset second value. Alternatively, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the third defect value as a preset third value based on that the total vibration value of the rotating machine is greater than the second threshold value. In this case, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the defect level as a preset third value.

First, the fault diagnosis system 100 may receive data for diagnosing the state of the rotating machine, and perform machine learning based on the data for diagnosing the state of the rotating machine.

Thereafter, referring to FIG. 4 , in step S410 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether a defect has occurred in the rotating machine based on the result of machine learning. For example, when a defect occurs with respect to a rotating machine, the defect diagnosis system 100 may calculate a specific gravity of a sample representing the defect. For example, the specific gravity of a sample representing a defect may be a ratio of a defective sample associated with a rotating machine to a total sample associated with a rotating machine. The defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the first defect value based on the specific gravity of the sample indicating the defect. Alternatively, for example, when no fault has occurred in the rotating machine, the fault diagnosis system 100 may determine the first fault value as 0.

In step S430 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether an alarm is generated for a frequency associated with a defect in the rotating machine. When the first defect value is determined to be a non-zero value in step S410, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether an alarm is generated for a frequency associated with a defect in the rotating machine. For example, an alarm for a frequency associated with a defect in a rotating machine may occur when a frequency associated with a defect in a rotating machine is within a preset range. For example, an alarm for a frequency associated with a defect in a rotating machine may not occur when the frequency associated with a defect in a rotating machine is outside a preset range. When an alarm for a frequency associated with a defect of a rotating machine occurs, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the second defect value as a preset first value. Alternatively, when the alarm for the frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine does not occur, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the second defect value as the first defect value.

In step S450, the fault diagnosis system 100 may determine whether the total vibration value of the rotating machine exceeds an allowable standard. When an alarm for a frequency associated with a defect of the rotating machine occurs in step S430 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether the total vibration value of the rotating machine exceeds an allowable standard. For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the third defect value as the second defect value based on the total vibration value of the rotating machine being smaller than the first threshold value. Alternatively, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the third defect value as a preset second value based on that the total vibration value of the rotating machine is greater than the first threshold value. Alternatively, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the third defect value as a preset third value based on that the total vibration value of the rotating machine is greater than the second threshold value. For example, the second threshold value may be greater than the first threshold value.

In step S470, the fault diagnosis system 100 may determine a fault level for the rotating machine. For example, in step S430, when an alarm for a frequency associated with a defect of the rotating machine does not occur, the defect diagnosis system 100 determines the second defect value as the first defect value, and sets the defect level to the first defect. value can be determined. For example, when the total vibration value of the rotating machine is smaller than the first threshold value in step S450, the fault diagnosis system 100 determines the third fault value as the second fault value, and sets the fault level as the second fault value. can decide For example, in step S450, when the total vibration value of the rotating machine is greater than the first threshold value, the fault diagnosis system 100 determines the third fault value as a preset first value, and sets the fault level to the third fault value. can be determined as For example, in step S450, if the total vibration value of the rotating machine is greater than the second threshold value, the fault diagnosis system 100 determines the third fault value as a preset second value, and sets the fault level to the third fault value. can be determined as

In step S490, the fault diagnosis system 100 may determine that the rotating machine is in a normal state. For example, in step S410 , when it is diagnosed that a defect has not occurred in the rotating machine based on machine learning, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine the rotating machine to be in a normal state. For example, if the rotating machine is in a steady state, the defect level may be zero.

For example, when the fault diagnosis system 100 determines that the rotating machine is in a normal state, steps S430 and S450 may be omitted. For example, if an alarm for a frequency associated with a defect in the rotating machine does not occur, step S450 may be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 5 , in step S510 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether the defect on the state history data of the rotating machine matches the defect level of the rotating machine related to the defect level. For example, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether a defect with the highest frequency in the same type of equipment related to the rotating machine and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level match. Here, the state history data of the rotating machine may include a maintenance history of the rotating machine and information related to the same type of equipment.

In operation S530, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether an alarm related to driving information is generated. For example, when the defect on the state history data of the rotating machine does not match the defect level of the rotating machine related to the defect level, the defect diagnosis system 100 may determine whether an alarm related to operation information is generated. For example, when the defect on the state history data of the rotating machine and the defect level of the rotating machine related to the defect level do not match, the defect diagnosis system 100 sets the monitoring item related to the operation information of the rotating machine to a preset reference value. You can decide whether to exceed it. That is, the fault diagnosis system 100 may generate an alarm based on a monitoring item related to operation information of a rotating machine exceeding a preset reference value. Here, the operation information of the rotating machine may include at least one of a flow rate of a pump related to the rotating machine, a front/rear pressure related to the rotating machine, or a fluid temperature related to the rotating machine.

In operation S550 , the defect diagnosis system 100 may not apply a weight to the defect level. For example, when the defect with the highest frequency in the same equipment related to the rotating machine and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level match, the defect diagnosis system 100 may apply a weight to the defect level. For example, when an alarm related to operation information of a rotating machine occurs, the defect diagnosis system 100 may apply a weight to the defect level.

In operation S570, the defect diagnosis system 100 may apply a weight to the defect level. For example, when the defect with the highest frequency in the same equipment related to the rotating machine and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level do not match, the defect diagnosis system 100 may not apply a weight to the defect level. For example, when an alarm related to operation information of a rotating machine does not occur, the defect diagnosis system 100 may apply a weight to the defect level. For example, when the most frequent defect in the same equipment related to the rotating machine and the defect status of the rotating machine related to the defect level do not match, and an alarm related to the operation information of the rotating machine does not occur, the fault diagnosis system ( 100) can apply a weight to the defect level.

For example, when the defect with the highest frequency in the same equipment related to the rotating machine and the defect state of the rotating machine related to the defect level coincide, steps S530 and S550 may be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 6 , the severity calculation program may be a program for automatically quantifying the state of equipment from micro-defects to transient defects (eg, defect level (DL) 1 to DL 3). For example, a fault diagnosis system may include a severity calculation program.

In order to comprehensively consider and quantify the state of equipment in various fields, the diagnosis results through each diagnosis technique may be collectively inquired for the fault diagnosis system, and the diagnosis results may be input to the fault diagnosis system.

DL 1 may be a step to evaluate for micro-defects or asymptomatic equipment (eg rotating machinery). For example, the fault diagnosis system may query machine learning results for equipment or perform machine learning based on data related to equipment. Thereafter, when the machine learning result indicates a defect, the defect diagnosis system may determine the first DL value by calculating the specific gravity of the sample indicating the defect. For example, the specific gravity of a sample representing a defect may be the ratio of defective samples associated with the rotating machine to the total sample associated with the rotating machine. For example, the specific gravity of the sample representing the defect may be the following Equation 1.

For example, when the machine learning result does not indicate a defect, the defect diagnosis system may determine the DL value to be 0, and may determine the state of the equipment as a normal state.

For example, since the vibration signal has unique characteristics depending on the state of the equipment, the fault diagnosis system can calculate a feature vector that can express each characteristic well through the machine learning diagnosis technique. The defect diagnosis system can classify features that show a minimized distance between features in the same state and maximize distance between features in different states well, and can be categorized by state of the defect. The defect diagnosis system can learn characteristics of each state (eg, (normal, defect type)) for numerous previous data, and can classify regions by state. At this time, the defect diagnosis system receives new data In this case, it is possible to predict the equipment state in the area in which the data is input, and therefore, since subjective human intervention is minimized, it is possible to objectively judge a defect without prejudice.

DL 2 may be a step to assess the severity of the defect. The fault diagnosis system can inquire whether or not an alarm has occurred at the fault-related frequency. For example, whether or not an alarm is generated at a frequency associated with a defect may be determined based on whether a frequency associated with a defect of a rotating machine is within a preset range or out of a preset range. That is, for example, when a frequency associated with a defect of a rotating machine is within a preset range, an alarm may be generated. Alternatively, when the frequency associated with the defect of the rotating machine is outside the preset range, the alarm may not be generated. In this case, when an alarm for the fault linkage frequency occurs, the fault diagnosis system may determine the second DL value to be 0.4. Here, 0.4 may be a preset value, and may be set to another value according to various embodiments of the present disclosure. Alternatively, when an alarm for the fault linkage frequency does not occur, the fault diagnosis system may determine the first DL value as the final DL value, that is, the second DL value.

For example, the narrowband frequency diagnosis technique may be a method of monitoring and evaluating a frequency for a region of interest by subdividing the frequency domain, unlike evaluating the entire frequency domain as one energy value. That is, since various defects occurring in the equipment cause amplitude changes in a specific frequency region, the defect diagnosis system can classify the frequency region of interest as a parameter, set an allowable range, and monitor the equipment. Accordingly, the defect diagnosis system may acquire information about the defect for each frequency region of interest and may identify the cause of the defect.

DL 3 may be the stage where the equipment is evaluated as a warning or critical state. For example, when the total vibration value exceeds an allowable criterion (eg, a first threshold value) of an Alert, the fault diagnosis system may determine the third DL value as 0.6. Here, 0.6 may be a preset value, and may be set to another value according to various embodiments of the present disclosure. For example, when the total vibration value exceeds a fault tolerance (eg, a second threshold value), the fault diagnosis system may determine the third DL value to be 0.8. For example, if the total vibration value does not exceed the acceptance criterion (eg, the first threshold value), the fault diagnosis system may determine the second DL value as the final DL value, that is, the third DL value. .

For example, the diagnostic technique through the total vibration value may be a method of evaluating the total vibration value output from the equipment based on the limit value or the allowable value according to international standards or recommendations from manufacturers of equipment. The fault diagnosis system can classify equipment into shape, capacity, support structure, etc., and can apply evaluation criteria suitable for the equipment concerned. Since management standards such as international standard vibration standards (ISO API, etc.) are constantly being revised to improve the justification of the standards, the defect diagnosis system can evaluate defects based on the revised management standards. Accordingly, when the defect is diagnosed with respect to the state in which the tolerance standard outlier occurs, the defect diagnosis system can diagnose the defect more accurately.

The first added weight 1 may be a step for calculating an additional weight to the DL value. For example, the fault diagnosis system may inquire and/or determine the state history data of the facility by linking the maintenance history of the facility with the same type of facility. In this case, when the most frequently occurring defect and the diagnosis result of the current facility coincide with each other, the defect diagnosis system may add a weight to the DL value. For example, when the most frequent fault matches the current equipment status, the fault diagnosis system may apply a weight by multiplying the DL value by 1.1. For example, when the most frequent fault and the current equipment status do not match, the fault diagnosis system may not apply a weight to the DL value.

For example, the technique of comparing and diagnosing the same type of equipment may be a technique of using the maintenance history and state history data of the facility linking the same type of equipment. That is, the fault diagnosis system can add additional severity when the most frequent fault in the same type of facility matches the current facility status. For example, the fault diagnosis system can reclassify the same type of facility diagnosed as the most frequently occurring fault, and predict the fault of the facility by using at least one of narrowband frequency information or machine learning information of the same type of facility. It can be used for diagnosis. Accordingly, since the defect diagnosis system can intensively monitor the characteristic values of the most frequent defects, the number of monitoring targets can be minimized.

The second added weight 2 may be a step for calculating an additional weight to the DL value. For example, the second additional weight may be considered when the first additional weight is not applied. That is, the fault diagnosis system may consider the second additional weight when the defect most frequently occurring in the same type of equipment and the current state of the equipment do not match. For example, when a monitoring item related to power management system (PMS) operation information exceeds an allowable standard, the fault diagnosis system may generate an alarm or inquire when an alarm has occurred. The fault diagnosis system can apply a weight when an alarm occurs by multiplying the DL value by 1.1. For example, when a monitoring item related to power management system (PMS) operation information does not exceed an allowable criterion, the fault diagnosis system may not apply a weight to the DL value.

For example, a fault diagnosis technique using operation information can utilize operation information that affects equipment. For example, the operation information affecting the facility may include a pump flow rate related to the facility, front and rear pressures related to the facility, and a fluid temperature related to the facility. The reliability of the diagnosis result can be improved by the correlation analysis linking the vibration characteristics and operation information.

The fault diagnosis system can evaluate the finally calculated DL value as a fault severity that quantitatively represents the condition of the equipment.

As described above, the method and system for diagnosing a defect of a rotating machine according to the present disclosure can quantitatively evaluate a minute change in condition of a facility, and accurately check the degree of defect progress of the facility by using the evaluation result value (severity), and the condition of the facility It is possible to more accurately determine the maintenance period, lifespan, etc.

One embodiment of the present disclosure described above and illustrated in the drawings should not be construed as limiting the technical spirit of the present disclosure. The protection scope of the present disclosure is limited only by the matters described in the claims, and it is possible for those of ordinary skill in the art of the present disclosure to improve and change the technical idea of the present disclosure in various forms.
